I'd also add the domain controller's own static ip address (192.168.168.168) listed for DNS then do ipconfig /flushdns, ipconfig /registerdns, restart the netlogon service

I am trying to setup a Active Directory and cant seem to find the solution on my own. The network also has a firewall, but I dont think that is the issue since the domain controller and AD are on the same machine.
The local domain controller could not connect with the following domain controller hosting the following directory partition to resolve distinguished names.

Let's suppose that your Active Directory Domain Controller (and DNS Server) is a Windows Server 2016 machine and is responsible for the domain "wintips.local" and has the IP Address "192.168.1.10".
At this example, the IP and the Preferred DNS address on the Primary Domain Controller (Server 2016) must be the same, e.g.
Primary Domain Controller (Server 2016)
Computer Name: Server2k16
Domain Name: WINTIPS.LOCAL
IP Address (Static): 192.168.1.10
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Preferred DNS Server: 192.168.1.10
Method 1. Set the Preferred DNS Server Address to match the Domain Controller's IP Address (on Client Workstation)
To resolve the "Specified Domain Does Not Exist or Could Not Be Contacted" error, you have to set the Preferred DNS IP to point to Primary Domain Controller's IP address, on each client workstation that you want to join in the domain. To do that:
6 Try to join the workstation in the Domain.
Added and executed the commands and restarted. I am going to post the current errors I do have from DNS and AD DS.

Hi,
To get more details about the DC health on each domain controller you can run the following command dcdiag
Dcdiag
repadmin /showrepl
Check also the event viewer on each DC.
